Chapter 1262 Because of Love
The nomination session is coming to an end.
Qin Luo, Kate, Cook...
Individual votes are also released one after another.
The highest one is undoubtedly Qin Luo, who is close to getting all the votes, followed by Cook, and Kate leads Mike Connor by one vote and is no. 5 selected as the Turing Award candidate.
As the founder of computer vision and the leader of computer vision, Mike Connor won the sixth and missed the current Turing Award.
When casting a vote, Connor did not vote for himself, and also prevented Qin Luo from voting for him.
Strictly speaking, he gave up his chance to compete for the Turing Award.
As for the reason?Qin Luo thinks it's because of love...
If Connor didn't stop himself and the votes in his hands were for him, then Connor would enter the final competition for the Turing Award with a one-vote lead.
In this regard, Qin Luo could only express helplessness.
If love is gone, you can find it again, but when the grand prize is gone, you don't know when you will have to wait.
Between the girlfriend and the grand prize, Qin Luo would choose the grand prize without hesitation.
As for the reason, it is very simple: a top student does not need a girlfriend (PS: when competing for the grand prize)
"Is it worth giving up the Turing Award for love?" Qin Luo turned to look at Mike Connor.
does it worth?
Hearing Qin Luo's words, Mike Connor raised a faint smile: "It's worth it."
"Why?" Qin Luo asked curiously: "You must know that it is the Turing Award, which represents the highest achievement in computer science."
It is true that the Turing Award does represent the highest achievement in computer science.
But what does this have to do with him?
It's as if he will definitely win the award if he enters the ranks of candidates.
"It's as if I'm going to win an award..." Mike Connor glared at Qin Luo angrily, and said, "Especially with you here, I can't think of how to win an award."
"..."
Qin Luo staggered with both legs and almost fell to the ground.
What the hell, talk about it, but it still comes back to me?
But inexplicably, Qin Luo felt a sense of happiness in his heart.
It feels good to be defeated without fighting.
When Gardner stepped onto the podium again with the microphone in his hand, Qin Luo knew that the nomination meeting had come to an end.
Sure enough, Knuth went to the speech seat and said loudly: "Thank you very much for coming. Under the witness of all colleagues, we have selected 5 nominees for the Turing Award. They are Professor Qin from Yenching University, Professor Kate of the University of Michigan, Professor Cook of the University of Melbourne..."
"First of all, let us congratulate them with warm applause. Secondly, I hereby solemnly extend an invitation to all professors to attend the Turing Award ceremony in one month's time."
"Clap clap~"
Thunderous applause resounded through the sky.
The annual event of the computer industry, the Turing Award ceremony will start in one month.
At that time, computer scientists from all over the world and the chairman of the world's major technology companies will gather together again to witness the birth of the legend.
"Next, we have prepared a sumptuous lunch at the hotel, please move professors..."
The feast after the nomination meeting is a usual practice, almost since 1966.
On the one hand, it is to provide a social occasion for the professors, and on the other hand, it is also to comfort scientists who have not been able to enter the candidate sequence.
